| Are you one of those Fire Emblem players that got really into Super Smash Brothers Brawl, saw Ike was from a game named Fire Emblem, and decided to check it out? Or maybe you saw the game cover for Path of Radiance in a store after having played Brawl, and thought 'OMGWTFBBQ! That dude was in Brawl! Sweet! Now I HAVE to try this game!' If you are one of the many FE players I've met, that got into the series thanks to Brawl, or Melee, your choice, please raise your hand :D Not trying to say you guys suck or anything, just curious. I find it kind of funny, actually, that people started FE cause of Brawl xD |
 |
| Yup, that's me. I loved Marth, so I went out to buy the first FE game I found. Then I got addicted to Fire Emblem.... |
| I've come too close to happiness to let it slip away... |
| haha. well at least more people discovered Fire Emblem that way. The first FE I played was number 8, Sacred Stones. The game looked interesting so I wanted to try it. After I got hooked I traced down 7. Funny thing is, I never played 9 because I never had a Gamecube, but maybe no,w since I have a Wii, I may be able to pick it up used and give it a spin. :D |

|
| Yeh. I picked up 7 because of DE... I'm sure most people picked it up because of games like Melee or Brawl, though. As for me, I had always watched DE play her FE games like 7 and 8 on her GBA, and PoR, and a little of RD. I started being like 'I WANT TO PLAY', and started playing 7 on DE's GBA(since she spends most of her time on the internet lately). Even if you started because of Brawl or Melee, thoguh, you still got into it :3 FE fans are FE fans, after all :3 I look forward to seeing how many did start because of brawl or melee now :3 |
 |
| I actually got into FE before I played either Melee or Brawl. I got Path of Radiance as a birthday Present and ever since then i was hooked. Got the two GBAs via emus and Radiant Dawn was the first game i ever got for my Wii. |
    |
| I'll admit it was Marth in Melee that got me interested in the series (he was my main, after all), but unlike other people, I realized it was like Final Fantasy and knew Marth himself wouldn't be in the newer games. Still, I bought Fire Emblem 7, and it has since become my favourite game of all time. |
| It's all Melee's fault, lol. But even though I love Marth and Roy so much, I never did bother to try out FE7 or FE8 when they came out. I got Path of Radiance for my birthday, and loved it and the characters, and provoked me to go get the GBA FEs and play all the other ones before FE7.

But it's hard to find fellow Fire Emblem fans that adored the franchise even before Brawl made it such a huge thing, you know? True that. Fire Emblem had a nice fanbase before, but got so much bigger because of Ike-the-Powerhouse in Brawl. Not that I'm complaining about it though, because at least all my friends are getting into FE by constantly asking to borrow my PoR. XD |
 |
| First game I played was the first american realese of fire emblem for the gba (fire emblem 7)! and it was love at first play. after playing that game i got impatient and played roy's game with a translation hack and i played sacred stone in japanese before it came out in english. The series is one of my ultimate favorites along with the tales series So ya it had nothing to do with Melee or Brawl, played the game before that... actually it'd say its the opposite, I play with Roy, Marth and Ike because I'm a fire emblem fan. |
 |
| I started Fire Emblem after playing SSBM.. more like, I've never heard of Fire Emblem before! But that's nothing to be surprised about.. Because the Fire Emblem for GBA was the first one released in Europe! I've never heard of Ness & Mr.Saturn before, too.. That's just sad :/ |
| I found out about Fire Emblem when I was playing Super Smash Bros. Melee when I was a little kid, and I remember thinking "Aw man, why can't this game come out in the US?" I remember being so exited when I found out that a Fire Emblem game was finally going to come out in the States, but I didn't really get into the series until much later, until about a year or two ago, actually. But boy, am I glad I did. Anyway, no, I didn't learn about Fire Emblem through Brawl... I learned about it through Melee. XD |
| Karen: So, if you're from Africa... why are you white? O_O Gretchen: Oh my God Karen! You can't just ask people why they're white! |
| I actually picked up Fire Emblem 7 by total randomness. I traded a friend my pokemon ruby for his FE7 and metroid fusion at school. And then i was hooked. |
| I was actually excited for Ike's appearance in Brawl because I was a fan of Fire Emblem beforehand. Too bad I suck with Ike. Marth is my third-best, though! |
You can find me on IRC. |
| The reason I got addicted to Fire Emblem was because of Radiant Dawn.The front cover of the game caught my attention.I wanted to buy it as soon as I saw it even though i didn't know anything about Fire Emblem. I am trying to get Brawl,but strangely I can't find it. :( |
| I played Roy a LOT. As in, I maxed out the play-time counter just using Roy. That being said, I hate Ike (it's because of him Roy got dropped). I mean, it makes no sense to drop Roy, when Lyn is an assist trophy |
 |
sylvanelite said: Lyn is an assist trophy Did you play FE6? At the end of FE7/Before FE6, Lyn gave up controll to Ostia. Then she left for the plaings. I seriously doubt that Lyn would |
| Well, in FE7 the ending changes based on supports. Here is what happens if you get an A rank support between Eliwood and Lyn: There are other support options, which is why I used the word "potentially" in my previous spoiler. |
|
| Personally, I think: |
| |
| Personally, I agree. But either way, Lyn being an AT in brawl doesn't make sense to me. Mewtwo and Pichu both received trophies despite being dropped. Roy did not. Makes me think that Roy really was intended to be in the game as a third fire-emblem character. Kind of like how Fox, Falco and Wolf are in the game. It would have been Marth, Roy and Ike respectively. |
|
| Even though you can match up whomever you want, I think the story implies that it's Eliwood and Ninian that sire Roy. Besides, I always liked Lyn and Rath personally. |

I've always been a big fan of Lyn x Hector, and like Ninian and Eliwood I think this shipping has the most support out of all of Hector's prospective brides. I do admit that Rath x Lyn is really cute~ And I do like them together too. Lyn needs a reverse-harem anyways! :D |

| I recall playing FE6 or FE7 as a Japanese ROM before SSBM, but eventually as SSBM was released. I returned to the series, bought the games, and that's when the obsession/interest became what it is now. I wish they could've made the FE1 and FE3 remakes a bit... better, though. FE11 and FE12, I think. The only Fire Emblem games I might be able to call boring. I want more FE9 and FE10 type games, to be honest. :( |

I want more FE9 and FE10 type games, to be honest. :( Like I said before, I haven't played 9, but 10 disappointed me when the support conversations were all one liners. I'd love for them to return to the GBA FE formula (6,7,8). I much rather have simpler mechanics (just anima not thunder/fire/wind mages, no biorhythm thingie...found that to be rather annoying actually, no third tier, no skills) yet really fleshed out Support Conversations. It would be nice if they could keep some of the improvements from 10 (9?) like skills and from 11 (ability to see the movement range of all enemies) into the next new game yet bring back the in-dept supports. That would be the perfect FE game for me! xD |

I recall playing FE6 or FE7 as a Japanese ROM before SSBM, but eventually as SSBM was released. I returned to the series, bought the games, and that's when the obsession/interest became what it is now. huh? Both FE 6 and FE 7 were released significantly after SSBM. You can check Roy's Trophy data to confirm this. |
|
| No I did not find Fire Emblem by SSB one day my brother brought home like three games and one was Shadow Dragon, however this is not what got me into it, it was when my brother and my sisters ex-boyfriend traded some games and one of them was Blazing Sword and that's when I began to love Fire Emblem. |

| Marth was my favorite character in Melee, and that was part of what got me into Fire Emblem. The other part was that I've always enjoyed real-time strategy games, and for a change of pace I decided to try out Advance Wars. Naturally, I found out that the same company makes Fire Emblem, so I decided to try it out, and loved it from the beginning. :) |
 |
| I saw Ike in SSBB and I bought Radiant Dawn and then Path of Radiance because I thought he was hot. :3 I am an Ike-main in SSBB, by the way. |

In fact I just looked up the release dates (Japan) SSBM came out in 2001. FE 6 came out in 2002, FE 7 came out in 2003. |
|
| Yeah well i started FE 7 when i was a kid always loved it but never knew more werebeing released So recently i went to search for the FE games after i played Brawl and got reminded of FE again xD I always loved LynnxHector and EliwoodxNinian ^^ so yeah.. And i was quite young playing and sadly let fiore die >.< so she was no option.. I will replay though and match fiore :) |

Chloe-tsundere said: I always loved LynnxHector Yeah~ High-five~ Lyn/Hector is my OTP. Don't really care for the other pairings tbh. XD |
